Dislocated no more

When a work-related injury sent one patient to VGH, he soon learned what we already know – our physicians and staff are “awesome”. But don’t take our word for it, read the patient’s letter for yourself. And if you’d like to see our colleagues righting another dislocated shoulder, check out the “Downtown” episode of the Knowledge Network series Emergency Room: Life and Death at VGH.

“Good Evening,

I would like to submit my compliments to the staff at VGH.  On February 4, 2014, I dislocated my left shoulder in a work-related injury and as a result was taken to VGH for treatment.

Your staff was very prompt at getting my treatment started very quickly after my arrival, all very caring and professional.

In particular, I would like to thank Dr. Brian Chung for his care and especially for his patience in getting my shoulder back to normal – I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone with such patience and concern.  Dr. Chung was awesome!  Please pass this on to him if possible.

I truly appreciate the care given to me by Dr. Chung and all the VGH staff.

Many thanks!”
